Remaining regional priorities expected to be delivered at grade and within dedicated rights-of-way, with the exception of (2) King George,
(3) Willingdon/ Hastings/2nd Narrows, and (4) 41/49 Ave, which may require grade separation. Technology and level of separation to be
determined through further studies.

The Park Royal <> Metrotown thing is something completely different and mentioned elsewhere in Transport 2050, with no mention of where it crosses.
It's intended to be BRT notationally, but
explicitly leaves open all technology options and alignments.
The person they hired to write that press release appears to have gotten confused between those two things, because there's no mention of any SkyTrain on Marine where it mentions 2nd Narrows.
I'm not even sure how useful a single spur across the 2nd Narrows would really be, even compared to Scott Road initially.
